Donald Cerrone’s bout against Conor McGregor is one of the fights to receive the highest PPV selling. Also, ‘Cowboy’s’ domain in the entertainment sector is nothing less than phenomenal. ‘Cowboy’ is further known as one of the busiest fighters in the UFC for a reason. He has starred in many Hollywood movies and made a few country songs. Cerrone recently released a new song with Brantley Gilbert. However, the song didn’t do the magic that it was intended to perform.

Cerrone‘s new song was intended as a laughingstock. It was, in fact, recorded for the 2022 MMA Awards. However, when it landed on Twitter, the fans displayed displeasure in the comments section.
Fans react to Donald Cerrone’s new country song
The 36-17-0 record holder, Donald Cerrone, recently released a song called, ‘Lil’ Cowboy’s Up’. Although the original song, ‘Bottoms Up’, created by Brantley Gilbert, became a popular country song; this one, however, was intended as a joke for the MMA Awards.

In the description, ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone wrote, “This was recorded as a gag for the 2022 MMA Awards, they asked us to just shoot it on a green screen and keep it simple… so we did our thing and I just acted like a knucklehead.”
Fans, however, were not in favor of the ‘Cowboy’. @RealPressMMA and @MMARoasted recently shared the music video on Twitter. They questioned in the caption whether ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone was in fact the best country singer alive. Without a doubt, the fans took over the comments section and displayed their dislike for the song. Furthermore, they were in complete denial that ‘Cowboy’ was a good singer.
Here is what people had to say:
